What a fantastic way to show your appreciation for all the federal, state and community help they got after the storms; to weaponize themselves.

You're welcome Schoharie!

According to the T-U:
"Katz is a member of the Assembly's Alcoholism and Drug Abuse Committee as well as its Higher Education Committee. In 2012, he voted against a bill that would have legalized medical marijuana."

How predictable...

Cuomo's move is far from perfect. But it's also a far step further forward than Schoharie County, or the NRA or any other paranoid gun owner has displayed in moving the American community toward a safer firearm environment. Instead of belligerents (just who I don't want owning guns), maybe you could try to be good citizens, and good Americans, and be part of the solution.

Thanks. Thanks for all the help making our communities and cities safer gun-owners. Thanks for nothing.

What relevance does the meaning of Herkimer have? None I suppose, but it gives some background to the story which is often how journalism works.

But you come off like sounding a little like someone on edge about their guns. But maybe you didn't mean it that way...

Completely agree. Cops in nice cars isn't working. Cops on foot and bike do. It builds a better connection to the community and the support network for crime fighting and quality of life issues is much stronger.

I work in downtown Schenectady and have never seen a cop walking, and 2 or 3 times seen a cop on a bike. But I see lots of them driving around, completely detached from their environment.

Bah, Ronnybrook and Old Chatham yogurts are way better.
IMHO, anyway.

This is journalism?

It's a country of laws Frank. Why do you seem to struggle with that? Name calling sorta worked in grade school but we're adults here. You are a grownup, right?

You sadly use the term 'weasel' to describe the person responsible for expanding the whistle blower laws to include corporate tax cheats. Is that the thuggery you're referring to? Oh right. They're the job creators, even if they're cheats.

I'm thankful Ms. Golub was given ample space in this paper to rebut the charge, right or wrong. That's how you do 'Fair and Balanced'.

Mr. Simmons' humility in the face of a stupid mistake is inspiring.

Thanks cfield!
